POPSYellowstone's Plumbing Reveals Plume of Hot and Molten Rock 410 Miles Deep
This thing is still plugged in....DEEP. About 4 miles beneath Yellowstone National Park's beautiful scenery is a forty-mile-wide chamber full of molten rock under incredibly high pressure. This magma is what powers Yellowstone's fantastic geysers and hot springs, It's the crown jewel of the United States national park system. Its mountain vistas, wildlife and geographic features are visited and admired by people from around the world. It erupted approximately 650,000 years ago. The caldera that it left is 53 miles long and 28 miles wide. In the area surrounding Yellowstone, 3000 square miles were subjected to a flow of pyroclastic material composed of 240 cubic miles of hot ash and pumice. Ash was also thrown into the atmosphere and blanketed much of North America. It can still be identified in core samples from as far away as the Gulf of Mexico. Since this occurred more than a half million years ago this is all ancient history, right? Not quite.

POPSSome Gay Lefties Won’t Date Palin Supporters Yeah, this explains the "tolerance" of the gay left, no doubt about it. Link to hillbuzz: http://hillbuzz.org/2009/12/13/sarah-palin-prevents-gay-men-from-dating/ Don't listen to the haters Sarah. Those left-leaning queens are just jealous because you look better in a dress than they do. Thanks for posting this Dan. Well said.

POPSHamas is once again very clear - it wants to destroy Israel.... It's a genocidal organization... In a long, defiant speech on Monday afternoon, Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh said that gaining control of the Gaza Strip was "just a step toward liberating all of Palestine." "This movement liberated the Gaza Strip with the help of the militant factions," said Haniyeh, referring to terrorist groups operating under the umbrella of Palestinian resistance. "Brothers and sisters, we will not be satisfied with Gaza," he declared. "Hamas looks toward the whole of Palestine."

POPS"Francisco's Money Speech" The economy is still imploding, which is bad. I don’t know if Obama will do anything useful since our economy is based on capitalism and he hates capitalism. Also, our economy is in America and he hates that country.

One of those ships, the United States, actually saw service on both sides during the Civil War. And the Constitution, restored to her full glory in Boston Harbor, is still a U.S. Navy ship. Her captain takes visitors below and shows them how those radical braces meet at the keel. He tells them that that structural nexus is the very point were America first joined the global community.

POPSAshley Dupre is performing a new job; she is Carrie Bradshaw, sorta Meet the new inspiration for homewreckers, mistresses, and hookers everywhere. I am sure her wealth of knowledge is not to be overlooked. There is a lovely video of Ashley, explaining her new job that she is performing, but it kind of makes me want to throw up. Reminds me of Democrats who want to feel your pain, drop their trousers, grope your daughters and drive their dates off of bridges. But you can view it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMqvaCbqXqU

POPSHow To Use An APOSTROPHE REMEMBER: If you're trying to say "it is" or ("it has") use an apostrophe Example: It is (it's) unusual to put crickets in coffee, but I do it anyway. It has (it's) been a fun day. We should go to the velociraptor petting zoo more often!

POPSC'mon, ACLU, go all in - fight Christmas Thanks to the ACLU, the whole world now knows what “torture” means in the United States: Sleep deprivation “insult slaps” water dousing “walling” (slamming a detainee’s head against a wall) Apparently, American-style torture consists of attending one of my college frat parties from 1993.

POPSRugged individualism is always going to be a direct threat to sissy collectivism “sissy collectivism” The best description of modern liberalism I’ve heard. Bravo. Of course, you can always count on left-liberals to respond to criticism of any sort with vituperation. That’s required by their vision of themselves as intellectually and morally superior to benighted conservatives. But all things must pass, especially an inaccurate assessment of a peron's own intellect and character. YAY! liberalism YAY!!!!! Now, if only Bill Maher was here to counter this, life would be splendid. And please folks, leave your comments - they are welcome as always. No one is banned from commenting on what I post, unless you're spamming me with male enhancement products. I'm all set in that area.

POPSBefore the Fall of the Reindeer People This post was written by: Karl Fabricius - who has written 236 posts on Environmental Graffiti. Karl was raised in Wales and currently lives in Bristol, though his family tree branches to both sides of the Atlantic. Besides holding an English MA, he’s made a documentary on grassroots boxing, played drums in punk rock bands, and traveled some lush parts of the globe. Back from copywriting in Dubai’s desert, he’s thirsty to get scribbling about things worth scribbling about – especially the environment.

POPSEiffel Tower: The View Looking Down I was in Paris a few years ago, and would recommend skipping the ET if you're going as a tourist. Wait times to get to the top are too long and forget about taking the stairs unless you are an Olympian. This photo is probably the closest thing to being there.

POPSOh Holy Night - Celine Dion This is my favorite Christmas classic. I'm not a big Celine Dion fan, but there are just no words in the English language that I can find to describe how terrific this performance is.
